Was Tony the Boss of the family in the Sopranos pilot?

It seems like they try to fudge it with this line in the second episode -
Tony Soprano: You know, you got a reputation for immaturity, and its not gonna be improved by not paying the tributes the acting boss demands of you.
Brendan Filone: Acting boss my ass Ton'. Come on, everybody knows you really run things since Jackie became the Kemosabe.

Based on the following I've concluded that Tony was in fact the boss in the pilot.

1. No mention of Jackie
2. Junior says "you may run north jersey but you don't run your uncle Junior" to Tony. North Jersey is the Sopranos territory. If Junior and Tony were both caporegimes and at the same level, like in the second episode, this quote wouldn't make sense
3. In the Bada Bing, while discussing the Pussy Malanga hit, Hesh says: "your uncle resents the fact that you're the boss"
4. Artie's wife Charmaine describes Tony as the don of New Jersey

As others have said, there were several hints in the pilot episode, indicating that Tony was in fact the boss. But another reason that has yet to be mentioned is the fact that the pilot episode was originally supposed to be a movie, and David Chase was not certain that HBO would pick it up. He was later convinced to make the Sopranos into a TV series. Subsequently, they resumed filming in the summer of 1998.

Read the Wikipedia article for this episode, under "Production".

Jackie was boss at the very start however he passes away from cancer. its after his death that tony backs junior as new boss of the DiMeo family as he believes junior has been waiting his whole life for this promotion. tony is a capo. after a falling out at the end of series 1 and during series 2 where we see junior try to assassinate tony because of a few reasons (he was seeing a "shrink", he put his mother in a home and he was having frequent meetings at his mothers nursing home with other capos) tony decides to take control by killing juniors men and having junior arrested (from which he is released under house arrest). after tony has him arrested, tony rises to the top of the family as acting boss. tony has the "soprano crew" in new jersey (which the show is based on). see this as a sub section of the DiMeo crime family.

Despite no mention of Jackie I believe Tony was not the boss in the pilot. When Junior decided to whack Pussy Malanga at Vesuvio all Tony would have needed to do was tell Junior no, if Tony was the boss. Junior, being a long time Capo and knowing the rules, would have listened to Tony. The fact that Tony had to come up with a way to make the hit go down elsewhere and wasn’t able to simply tell Junior no is all the proof you need that Tony was not the boss.

Running North Jersey refers to the area where Tony’s crew operated at the time.
